Only issue with running timing so low though, is it will have an adverse effect on emissions at idle.

It is in a Landriver with Toyota Hilux running gear behind it. Will post up a thread later this week hopefully.
Have now set it so it runs between 10 and 25 degrees advance.

you can also set your emissions man on fire sometimes with increased header temps :lol:

I was only proving a point - it works ridiculously well even with stupid massively open setup.

Now the throttle/bypass is set up correctly, I have seen it only run as low as 8 degrees advanced now, and up to 25. No aircon, only powersteering and alternator (radiator fan) load. I may close the throttle a touch more once it is tuned so it can run more timing when warm.
